Savior 16" Chainsaw Bar & Chain Combo — 16" bar with 2x 3/8"LP .050" 55DL chains, low-kickback semi-chisel for Stihl MS170

Savior's 16" guide bar paired with two 3/8"LP .050" 55-drive-link semi-chisel chains is a drop-in replacement designed to restore cutting performance on Stihl-compatible small and mid-size chainsaws.

If your Stihl MS170 or a similar saw needs a fresh bar and chain for yard work, pruning, or light commercial jobs, this combo supplies a reversible 16-inch guide bar plus two low-kickback semi-chisel chains. The kit arrives with protective oil on metal parts, a bar cover, storage bags and gloves so you can install and transport the components safely. The unit targets common Stihl models and many equivalent saws that accept a 16" bar with 3/8"LP pitch and .050" gauge.

Will this bar and chain fit my Stihl saw?

Yes, the 16" Savior bar and 3/8"LP .050" 55DL chain are engineered to fit a wide range of Stihl and equivalent saws that use a tail-mount 16" guide bar. Confirm your saw requires a 3/8" low-profile pitch and .050" gauge plus 55 drive links to ensure compatibility.

• Compatible with Stihl MS170, MS180, MS192, MS200, MS210, MS211 and many others
• Replaces Oregon 160SDEA074 and similar 16" tail-mount bars
• Sprocket nose with 7 teeth and guide bar code SDE
• Check your saw’s drive link count — this kit uses 55 DL

How does this combo perform compared with OEM parts?

The Savior guide bar is lightweight, reversible and treated for wear resistance, while the semi-chisel, low-kickback chains are heat-treated at each rivet for stronger link connections. Expect reliable cutting for light commercial and homeowner tasks; chain geometry favors fast, smooth slicing with easier maintenance than high-profile cutters.

• Semi-chisel cutters balance cutting speed and ease of sharpening
• Heat-treated rivets improve joint durability under load
• Protective oil finish resists corrosion during storage
• Reversible bar extends usable life by allowing both rail sides

What do I get in the package and what tools will I need?

The combo ships as a complete install set so you can replace bar and chain on the spot. In addition to the bar and two chains, the kit includes storage bags, a bar cover and a pair of XL gloves (not cut-resistant). You’ll still need basic chainsaw tools to install, tension, and sharpen the chain.

• Included: 1 x 16" guide bar, 2 x 55DL chains, 2 storage bags, bar cover, gloves
• Required: scrench or wrench for bar nuts, screwdriver or depth gauge tool for adjustments
• Recommended: chain file or sharpening guide for maintenance
• Always follow saw maker torque and tension specifications during installation

How should I maintain the bar and chains for best life?

Keep the chain lubricated, tensioned correctly, and sharpen cutters before they become rounded. Rotate the reversible bar occasionally and inspect the sprocket nose and rails for wear; replace the chain if rivets loosen or cutters are damaged beyond sharpening.

• Check and top off bar oil before each use
• Adjust tension when chain is warm and running freely without sag
• File cutters to factory angle and maintain proper depth gauge settings
• Store in the provided bag with light protective oil to prevent rust

Who is this for: This Savior 16" bar and 3/8"LP .050" 55DL chain combo is intended for homeowners, arborists, and light-commercial users who operate Stihl-compatible small to mid-size chainsaws (including MS170-series models) and need a cost-effective, ready-to-install replacement. It suits anyone who wants a durable, reversible guide bar with semi-chisel chains that balance cutting performance and serviceability for pruning, firewood cutting, and general property maintenance.
